“Institutional Investor envisioned a unique work environment that was bright, open, and collaborative, reflecting their non-hierarchical leadership and direction.”
– Richard Bliss, Design Director
TMA provided architectural, workplace strategy, and change management services to see the project to completion.
The newly-designed workspace paid tribute to Institutional Investor’s London Headquarters, previous “loft” work environment, and the cultural elegance of New York City.
The number of private offices was reduced significantly. The overall program contained three senior executive offices, which were set up to double as conference rooms when senior executives went away on business.
Institutional Investor wanted a lot of flexibility, with the inclusion of spaces of varying size, as well as the ability to accommodate different types of clients, industries, and in-house staff meetings.
A range of open and close collaborative spaces can be found within steps from open-plan workstations.
The office consists of “neighborhoods,” where each team has immediate access to team rooms, phone rooms, and open booth areas.
Right off of the main circulation paths, impromptu interactive spaces provide quick access to meet with follow team members, or a quieter place to contemplate and work.
The central café includes a barista station to offer employees a break or extra boost when needed.
A café provides a place for teams to dine with one another and to meet over coffee throughout day.
